Interesting fight. I've got Smith on this one, but curious to see if his long layoff will be a factor against the lesser talented but physically larger Ramirez.

Smh didn't see it was cruiserweight.
didn't know Joe was at cruiserweight now

I think it’s cause gordo Ramirez doesn’t want to cut

[GBP4LIFE]

Zurdo likely overwhelms and KO’s Smith, Smith has issues with guys that throw alot of punches.

I’ll probably attend this fight live.

Will be interesting to see who will be added as the co-main

This is great matchmaking ! Be interesting to see the odds but I would think Zurdo will be a slight favourite - but until Smith gets hurt he is deadly dangerous

[TreD]

I was just wondering how Smith Jr. was doing, and when he'd be fighting again! Glad he's back at it. Beterbiev is a different animal; Smith Jr. gives most others a lot of problems.

What happened to wide Zurdo wanting to fight Canelo

[AmpMcv]

I think Smith takes it to him.

I honestly thought Smith quiet retired, taking his payday from the Beterbeiv fight. Smith's punches weren't as effective against a cruiserweight coming down to LHW (Maxim Vlasov) so I wonder how well his punches are going to be against Zurdo at 200 lb.
